- What if I need helpers? – Additional badges will be available for artists and vendors for $15 each.
- Will there be a setup up and breakdown down times? – There will be time Friday night as well as Saturday morning. Exact times TBD.
- How do we do load-in/load-out? – All of your stuff will need to be moved in and out via the hotel’s main entrance.
- Will I be required to have insurance? – Hilton Hotels has waived the insurance requirements due to the types of items being sold. As long as we don’t add a weapon vendor we’re good.
